The upcoming New Holland plant will be bigger than CNH’s current facility in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The existing plant is spread across 60 acres and has an annual capacity of 60,000 tractors, which can be scaled up to 70,000 units.
“In 2024, we produced about 51,000 tractors at this facility, selling 37,000 in India and exporting 14,000 to the US, Europe, and other markets,” said Gerrit Marx, Global CEO of CNH. He emphasized that the company’s goal is to achieve a double-digit market share in India’s 900,000-unit tractor market by 2030.
New Holland is set to make India a key centre for manufacturing and innovation. The company will leverage India’s supplier base, skilled workforce, and cost advantages to create globally competitive products.
“India was earlier seen as part of the Asia-Pacific and was not given enough focus. Now, we want India to become a strategic hub for global operations,” Marx stated.
As part of this vision, CNH unveiled its first “Made-in-India” compact four-wheel drive tractors in the 35–55 HP range, which will be exported to European and North American markets.
CNH currently generates about $1 billion in revenue from its India operations, with 65% from agriculture, 32% from construction equipment, and 3% from financial services.
In addition to the Greater Noida tractor plant, CNH operates a combine harvester plant in Pune, a construction equipment unit in Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh, and a technology and product development centre in Gurugram.
The company is also a market leader in sugarcane harvesters and small square balers, holding a 60% market share in both segments.
